Every habit is a color. Every day you complete one, your calendar paints itself. After a month you don't read a grid of identical checkmarks. You read a picture of how you actually lived. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Other habit trackers tell you HOW MANY habits you did. Colors tells you WHICH ones, at a glance, on a calendar you'll actually want to look at. HOW IT WORKS • Create a habit, give it a color and an emoji • Tap once to check in • Watch the month fill with color WHAT'S INSIDE • A multicolor calendar showing which habits you did each day • Filter by one habit to see its own heatmap • Streaks, perfect days and weekly progress • Reminders you can check in from, without opening the app • Flexible schedules: every day, chosen weekdays, or a few times a week • Several check-ins a day for habits you repeat • Light and dark themes, in English and Spanish A COLOR YOU CANNOT PICK Eleven colors are on the palette. There is a twelfth, hidden somewhere in the app. Good luck finding it. More colors are on the way. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No cloud. Your habits stay on your phone. We never receive them, so we could not read them even if we wanted to. FREE AND PREMIUM Free: 3 habits, this month and last, one reminder per habit. Premium: unlimited habits, your complete history, several reminders per habit, and data export. Premium is available as an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly, with a one-week free trial on the yearly plan) or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://getcolors.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://getcolors.app/privacy
